Date men and women from United States / California / Walnut Creek, 42 year old

Date people from Walnut Creek, United States. I am an outgoing well traveled hardworking guy, I am an R.N. that works nights,I want to start working days soon so I can start developing an actual social life. I can get along with just about any reasonable person.
I would like to meet a woman that has a child like love of life without being childish. Someone that wants to be with me but does not need to be with me. I like passion but dislike clingy-ness.I always seem to end up dating either other nurses or teachers.I don't know why that is
I am very ambitious about things but, I am not so ambitious that I don't pay attention to life happening around. I do have a great job that I love, with a secure career.I have been blessed with good DNA & great health. I laugh easily and after I get over my initial shyness I can make others laugh. I make very good income and I do have a really good life.If I could live my dream it would be that I would be a life long student. I love going to school.
I am kind of unique in that I don't have an artistic bone in my body but I appreciate artistic type people very much. I have a wide range of music that I listen to From classic rock to 90s grunge to rap music. I do like some country but do not like depressing hang me from the nearest tree country music. I totally believe we as people are here for a good time not a long time and lifde is to be enjoyed.
I do have the luxury to up and move and travel to a new place every 3-6 months. If you want to go to Miami, L.A., Dallas, Houston, Seattle, New York then hey lets go. I am willing to totally settle down in one place if I were to meet the right person that would make me want to delete this profile and think Southern California is the place to settle down in. Other than that I am great for hanging out with and going to a movie, show, sports event, Bike riding, shopping and exploring. I am very laid back and easy going. I always wanted to be athletic like my brothers but was always too gangly and uncoordinated.I always wanted to be sexy but am way too shy. I am told that I am a very sweet guy by many women but I think people often confuse my niceness for weakness. I am NOT the bad boy type at all. I think that is why i get overlooked a lot. I hope to hear from you if you are at least a little interested. You never know what gem you will find if you don't look.
OK SO.....( so sorry I have to write this)
I am not living my life for the sake of impressing people that are not truly interested in me as a person, I will not present myself to be something or someone I am not. I am not super rich, I don't have a yacht or private jet.and don't feel the need to try to acquire one to please a woman who only has interest in material things. To those of you posing for pics in front of yachts and on private jets pictures with tons of plastic surgery in places all over the world (Which are really photo shopped). Those who very quickly assess me because I drive a nice vehicle and ask how much I make, Move on you just blatantly scream I'M A GOLD DIGGER.Also. I am never ever going to be attracted to an obese person. I don't judge you for the body you have at all. It's just not what I am attracted to at all. Some of you ladies have Body Dysmorphic disorder which means, You think you look like Marilyn Monroe and you actually look like Roseanne Barr. Please don't waste your energy messaging me.
What am I attracted to? Women with Tattoos are a big plus. women that don't are laid back and easy going yet have ambition. Someone who is real and down to earth.

Meet men and women from Walnut Creek, United States. I believe absolutely in true love and that it's never too late to find it. So I'm here, hoping to find that magical, undefinable connection leading to happily ever after. A love affair for the ages. A soul mate, best friend and partner in crime. In a computer. I've heard success stories, it happens, so I'm trying match. Trying to describe who I am and what I'm looking for in a little box, without sounding completely full of myself.
My favorite guys are ones whose best qualities reflect my own. I have a lot of compassion, care deeply and am steadfastly loyal. I'm a definite animal lover/owner/rescuer, saving the world one neglected animal at a time. I'm educated and a lady, but I like to be playful and have a wild and goofy streak. If you enjoy the opera as much as chugging PBR at the corner dive, dressing up for fine dining as much as BBQing in flip flops, staying in luxury hotels and sleeping under the stars, then we already have a lot in common.
I'm outside a lot, enjoying hiking and beaches with my dog. I'm not afraid to get dirty, sandy or covered in pet fur, and usually do, but still kill in a LBD. I'm inherently friendly and can converse with just about anyone. Food is a passion, both making and eating it. I'm always seeking out new culinary experiences, a new place or a new recipe. Though I'm just as content to be at home in flannel pajamas talking, making dessert, drinking wine, reading. No reality TV for me, though. I'd rather eat broken glass than watch the Kardashians. Of course I like music-Stones, Van, Tori, Neko, and Dinah Washington are my top 5. I love, love, love to shop, as if you care. And I'm super affectionate.
I come from a wonderful family, and I love, love. love them to pieces. My parents were the best examples of hard work, hard play, a good moral compass, personal accountability, caring, generosity, and intellectual development. They always strove to instill those same qualities in me, and I'm forever grateful to be blessed with parents who really, truly cared. Family will always be very important to me and I very much want to start my own.
This is only the briefest introduction to me, and I'm so much better in person! If you are an intelligent, fun, sweetheart of a guy looking for the same in a green eyed girl, I would love to hear from you.

Date someone special from Walnut Creek, United States. I was born and raised in the Bay Area and believe this has had a profound effect in shaping my character. I think being from such a РІР‚?liberalРІР‚в„ў area has encouraged my open mindedness and tolerance sans the hippy dippy stuff. When people first meet me they usually assume I am the conservative or reserved type. In reality I am very down to earth, if not a bit on the scrappy side. I am organized but not rigid, I am just wired that way. However, I am not immune to moments of discombobulation. Close with my family, I am loyal to a fault. I am sarcastic and appreciate sarcasm in others. I have integrity and will admit when I am wrong.
I am very independent and not looking for a man to РІР‚?rescue meРІР‚в„ў. Although, I am still traditional when it comes to romance, I like it when the man takes the lead in the beginning. Texting is great and has its place, but please do not ask me out on a date by texting me.

I have a great job that I like and I work hard, however I do have a great work/life balance. I would consider myself successful but not in a flashy way.
I am fairly well traveled. I almost love researching and planning a trip as much a taking one (hence the organizational skills referenced above).
I am a terrible speller, I make an effort to floss everyday, I am a good parallel parker, I can drive a stick shift (even drove one in England), I can not sing, I am a good dancer, I am not very technical, I can hold my own with tools, I enjoy sporting events, I love the ballet (however do not expect you to attend with me), I think clowns are creepy, I recycle and bring my own bags to the store (even Target), and I am creative.
You are secure in your place in life. You are educated. You have a great sense of humor and will make me laugh, as I believe this is an all telling sign of intelligence. You are a truthful person.
I am a nice normal woman looking for the same in a man.
